I have my portfolio site open, but I have very little in there! What I’d like to do is let my visitors help me decide what to include. All you have to do is post a comic on this entry with a specific suggestion.
By specific I mean an actual suggestion, not just vague ones such as “do a life drawing”. What would be better is, “do a life drawing of at least three people walking down the street”.
I know many people who visit my site are creative and are likely in the same boat as I am, so your suggestions to adding good portfolio content is extremely important to me.
Anyway, thanks for reading, and please, suggest away.
How about some extreme perspective shots? In either cartoon pinups or life drawings.
A two-point perspective ink drawing of a busy street, preferrably from life.
So is this a personal portfolio or a resume-type portfolio? I’d definitely post some of your Spongebob stuff if you’re allowed to! Huge feather in your cap, dude.
It’s great that you’re breaking things down into categories like design, illustration and writing… many people only sell themselves on one talent, so it’s a good idea to say “hey I can do *all* this stuff!”
If this is a get-me-a-job portfolio, I’d take out your less confident wording like “hopefully” “I’ll be completely honest” and “I’ve done a fair amount of…” It’s good to be modest, but on a portfolio you gotta be proud of your work (you should be!)
As far as specifics? Monkeys. Put a monkey in your portfolio. Trust me.
